    I was going to go there a while back, but only went for the day.

    However, this place is supposed to fantastic.

    If I'm correct, the last time I did the Tarw trail, it almost goes through the garden of this palce because the trail was diverted, but it'll probably be back as it should by now.

    Let us all know what it's like as I'm defo staying next time I go.

    The ride to the trail centre is simples......it's almost across the road. It's near where the old centre used to be, ,many moons ago.

    i stayed there a couple of months ago and it was awesome.

    The trail centre is easily rodeable from the site and as mentioned, you can either go down the main rd or cut onto one of the trails.

    The showers are good, there is secure bike storage and the kitchen type area is very good.

    There's also a B&B about 2 miles down the road from the visitor centre, which is meant to be nice. I'm damned if I can remember it's name, but If I was staying there in winter, that's where I'd rather be.
